[Verse]
F E Fmaj7b5
They call you ecstasy,nothing ever sticks to you
F E
Not Velcro, not Scotch Tape
Fmaj7b5
Not my arms dipped in glue
F E
Not if I wrap myself in nylon
Fmaj7b5
A piece of duct tape down my back
F E
Love pierced the arrow with a 12
Fmaj7b5
And I can't get you back
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5
Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy
F E Fmaj7b5
Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
[Verse]
F E
Across the streets an old Ford
Fmaj7b5
They took off its wheels, the engine is gone
F E
In it seat sits a box
Fmaj7b5
With a note that says, "Goodbye Charlie, thanks a lot"
F E
I see a child through a window with a bib
Fmaj7b5
And I think of us and what we almost did
F E
The Hudson rocketing with light
Fmaj7b5
Ships pass the Statue of Liberty at night
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5
Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy
F E Fmaj7b5
Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
[Verse]
F E
Some men call me St. Ivory
Fmaj7b5
Some call me St. Maurice
F E
I'm smooth as alabaster
Fmaj7b5
With white veins running through my cheeks
F E
Big stud through my eyebrow
Fmaj7b5
A scar on my arm that says, "Domain"
F E
I put it over the tattoo
Fmaj7b5
That contained your name
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5
Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy
F E Fmaj7b5
Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
[Verse]
F E
The moon passing through a cloud
Fmaj7b5
A body facing up is floating towards a crowd
F E
And I think of a time and what I couldn't do
Fmaj7b5
I couldn't hold you close, I couldn't become you
F
They call you ecstasy
E Fmaj7b5
I can't hold you down, I can't hold you up
F E
I feel like that car that I saw today
Fmaj7b5
No radio, no engine, no hood
F E
I'm going to the cafe, I hope they've got music there
Fmaj7b5
And I hope those guys can play
F
But if we have to part
E
I'll have a new scar right over my heart
Fmaj7b5
I'll call it ecstasy
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5
Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy
F E Fmaj7b5
Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
